Sudden KO-D Tag Titles Match, Strange Love Connection, Making Kanda Myojin As Exciting As Las Vegas

April 7, 2025

I’ll write more about this in next week’s DDT Around The World article but congratulations go out to Shoko Nakajima for winning the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Championship in America on Saturday! That’s the good news. The bad news is her and HIMAWARI are currently stranded in America because according to their tweets their flight home was delayed for half a day and then cancelled. Hopefully that gets sorted out quickly.

After getting through their first KO-D Tag Team Titles defence, Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura decided their goal as champions is to break the record for most defences. The current record is 12 wins as held by Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa. Knowing it is a long road ahead, Astronauts quickly came up with the idea to put the titles on the line in their next match which just so happens to be against the SEX-MEN of Sawa & Hikaru Sato on a show that Takagi is booking.

A new alliance has been formed in DDT. It turns out MAO has been wanting to team up with KANON for quite some time and now is the time for them to join forces like some sort of Strange Love Connection. They’re going straight for the enemy because their first opponents as a tag team is against Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul from DAMNATION T.A.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KANDA MYOJON CULTURAL EXCHANGE CENTER PRESENTS THIS IS JAPAN”, 19/04/2025

1b. Round 2: X & X Vs X & X
1c. Final: X Vs X

One day after the International Princess Title is being defended in America, the next No. 1 Contender will be decided back in Japan. An unusual tournament format will be used in a series of matches between wrestlers from the 2023 and 2024 classes. The first match will be an 8-Woman Tag Match with the two teams randomly selected by lottery. The winning team will move onto the next round where they will randomly split into two teams for a regular tag team match. The winning team from that will reach the final where the two remaining wrestlers face each other to become the No. 1 Contender. The date of the winner’s title shot depends on the result of the Suzume Vs Jada Stone title match happening in Las Vegas.

DDT “KING OF DDT 2025 FINAL!!”, 25/05/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. King Of DDT 2025 – Semi Final: X Vs X
2. King Of DDT 2025 – Semi Final: X Vs X
3. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs Danshoku Dieno
4. King Of DDT 2025 – Final: X Vs X

Who knew that one of Danshoku Dieno’s biggest desires was to get into the fight of his life against Minoru Suzuki? The two of them fought to a double countout in yesterday’s tag match after Suzuki demanded Dieno to take things seriously. Dieno is willing to do that and completely drop his Danshoku moveset in order to get a singles match against Suzuki. For the moment this match has nothing to do with Suzuki’s DDT Universal Title. We’ll have to wait and see how his match with Yoshihiko goes in Vegas.

DDT “DDT MEET AND GREET AND FIGHT APRIL” Results

4. Special Tag Match: Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura defeated Takeshi Masada & Kazuma Sumi when Nakamura pinne Sumi with the Modified Crucifix Pin (11:17).

Both Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura are feeling in good spirits heading into their respective championship matches this Sunday. Nakamura told the fans that the roll up technique he’s been using to win matches will be used to win the KO-D Tag Team Titles from Astronauts and bring the belts back to DDT. He and Koroku also promoted the first “D GENERATIONS” show happening on 8th April.

A few days ago To-y was abducted by a mysterious person backstage after a DDT show. The person was Dr. Ueno and he transformed To-y into Mecha To-y! Together they fought Kazuki Hirata but just like Mecha Mummy, water was its fatal weakness. Hirata spat water into Mecha To-y making it malfunction. Chris Brookes had to place the faulty robot onto a trolley and wheel it back into the locker room.

NωA Jr. continue to use their song performances at the start of the show as an excuse to roll up each other for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. The belt changed hands from Yuni to Kazuma Sumi back to Yuni and then to Shunma Katsumata all within one song.

6a. Ball Throwing Match: Mizuki, Yuki Aino, Raku, Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki (5) defeated Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Kaya Toribami, Yoshiko Hasegawa & HIMAWARI (2).
– Red Team 1 – 0 White Team.
6b. Three-Legged Wrestling – 2 Count Fall Rules: Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki with a Double Backslide Pin (1:56).
– Red Team 1 – 1 White Team.
6c. Baton Relay: Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Kaya Toribami, Yoshiko Hasegawa & HIMAWARI defeated Mizuki, Yuki Aino, Raku, Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki.
– Red Team 1 – 2 White Team.
6d. Final Single Match ~ Special Rules: Raku defeated Hyper Misao with the Hurricane Turn (5:12).

The main event was a team based challenge involving three games that mixed pro wrestling with a school sports festival. After the three games were completed, the team with the most points were given an advantage for the final round. The first game involved both teams rushing to fill their basket with the most amount of balls. Mizuki from the Red Team and Hyper Misao from the White Team carried the basket and their teammates all tried to throw balls at them. Right before the time expired, Mizuki kicked over Misao’s basket resulting in her team winning five balls to two.

The second game was a wrestling match where two pairs of wrestlers had their legs tied together Three-Legged Race style. The Red Team was Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki while the White Team were Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa. They struggled to wrestle while being tied together but the White Team were able to roll up the Red Team for the victory.

The third game was a full relay race around the venue split into five parts. It started with Kaya Toribami pinning Yuki Aino with under 1 Count Rules to get a three second headstart. Then Mizuki and Hasegawa had a strawberry eating contest. The rules weren’t fully fleshed out which meant Toribami and Aino joined in to help their partners (and eat some free strawberries). After that Suzuki and Nakajima had a sack race from one end of the aisle to the other. Part 4 was a scavanger hunt between Kazashiro and HIMAWARI where they both went looking for a specific person carrying a yellow towel. The final challenge was a race to get past Tetsuya Koda in order to reach the finish line. Hyper Misao used the Hyper Mobile to speed past Raku, crash into Koda and then cross over the finish line to win the relay for the White Team.

All of that led into the grand finale. It was a singles match between a chosen member from each team and what we got was Raku from the Red Team against Misao from the White Team. Since the White Team had more points, Misao only needed a 1 Count Pinfall to win while Raku needed to score a 2 Count Pinfall. Every wrestler from the two teams interfered. If that wasn’t chaotic enough, Misao armed herself with the hero spray and Raku used her pillow as a weapon. Raku ended up turning the spray on Misao to blind her before using the Hurricane Turn to get the 2 Count pin. Team Red had become the winners of the sports festival!

Match #5 was changed when Antonio Honda was unable to wrestle because of his chronic love sickness. He was replaced by A.YAZAWA and the match was turned into a Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match! Rika Tatsumi prepared herself for the match by bringing her guitar along with her. She also strangled YAZAWA with his own suspenders. He recovered when “Paint It Black” played over the speakers. Everyone danced while they wrestled for a while. The music system malfunctioned midway through the match and started playing other genres. All four joined together when “Swan Lake” played then started fighting again when it was over. Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu were able to pin Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi at the same time with stereo Backslide Pins for the victory.

Pom Harajuku wasn’t at the show because she was feeling unwell. Her scheduled opponent Miu Watanabe was instead added to Arisu Endo Vs Uta Takami to make it a 3 Way Match.

It was announced that Matcha and Alexis Lee will both be returning to Tokyo Joshi Pro for Golden Week. They will be on the 3rd and 5th May shows.

DDT “NO SPOILERS EVENT VOL. 3 IN UENO” Results

April 1, 2025

DDT “NO SPOILERS EVENT VOL. 3 IN UENO”, 01/04/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – NωA Vs NωA Jr.!: Shunma Katsumata (c), MAO & Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata (c), Yuni & Kazuma Sumi ended when everybody pinned Katsumata after the Miracle Ecstasy (9:04).
*Yuni becomes the 1,738th champion.
2. Dancing Spirit Tradition Match: Kazuki Hirata (Yuya Koroku) defeated Yuya Koroku (Kazuki Hirata) with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (7:24).
3. Baseball Knuckle Match: Danshoku Dieno defeated To-y when To-y was about to undress (8:13).
4. World Wide Entertainment Match ~ Staggered Entry Battle Royal: Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin Jr. defeated Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin with the Stone Cold Stunner (16:01).
Order Of Elimination: Jibunmadashitakoto Nines, “Mr. Perfect” Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Manmankikind, Pakurimusou, Hanorek Hogaso, The Rockza, Manman Kikeigns, Nerima Sting, Hara Cena, Fukuda Hiroshides, Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin.
5. Partner Match ~ BOYZ Vs YaroZ All-Out Battle: The result is withheld.

Oh God this show is a complete nightmare to figure out. The third edition of DDT’s No Spoilers show had a main event pitting wrestlers from BOYZ taking on wrestlers from YaroZ. However DDT will not reveal what happened in the match and they made every attendee promise not to post anything about it, even though everything else was cleared once the clock reached midnight. Some of the wrestlers did pose group photos backstage and put them on social media though. The BOYZ side seems to consist of Chris Brookes, Yuki Ueno, Takeshi Masada, Akito & Soma Takao all dressed as cops. The members of the YaroZ team I could find were Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Naya, Yuki Ishida & Gota Ihashi. In the middle of it all was bikini model Tena Aoyama. Apparently the two sides were fighting over her.

The World Wide Entertainment match was a Rumble featuring familiar looking wrestlers from around the world. In order of entry we got Hanorek Hogaso (Antonio Honda as Hulk Hogan), “Mr. Perfect” Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi (Hiroshi in his USA gimmick), Nerima Sting (Daisuke Sasaki as Sting), Jibunmadashitakoto Nines (Keigo Nakamura as Seth Rollins), Manmankikind (??? as Mankind), Pakurimusou (Fuminori Abe as Hakushi), Hara Cena (HARASHIMA as John Cena), The Rockza (Keigo Nakamura as The Rock), Fukuda Hiroshides (Hiroshi as Cody Rhodes), Manman Kikeigns (??? as Roman Reigns), Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin (Honda as Stone Cold Steve Austin) and Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin Jr. (Nakamura also as Stone Cold).

To-y requested that his match against Danshoku Dieno would be a Baseball Knuckle Match. The rule is every time they played Rock Paper Scissors during the match the loser would have to remove one piece of clothing. The match would continue until one wrestler lost all of his clothes. To-y entered the match wearing several layers of clothes but Dieno was happy to strip down to his underwear right way. Dieno then went on a winning streak, forcing To-y to eventually strip down to just his own underwear. When Dieno won the final game, the referee ended the match and declared Dieno the winner to save To-y from stripping completely naked in front of everyone.

During the opening of the show Yuya Koroku and Kazuki Hirata got into a fight that made its way into the ring. HARASHIMA was in the middle of the opening speech so he stepped in and told both wrestlers to stop. They agreed and shook each other’s hands but also accidentally headbutted each other in the process. When it was time for the match to happen everyone found out the headbutt caused Koroku and Hirata to swap bodies and costumes! Koroku was now Hirata and Hirata was now Koroku. After doing each other’s spots for the entire match, Hirata (Koroku) pinned Koroku (Hirata) with the Miracle One Shot Cradle to win. They stayed in this state during intermission and it was only when the show restarted when they bumped heads again and swapped back to normal.

NωA was reunited to face the new generation that’s replacing them, NωA Jr. There was a problem because Shunma Katsumata is in both groups so had to wrestle on both teams. The other four eventually got sick of him jumping back and forth so they all fought him together and left him in a defeated mess. Both teams won but since Yuni was directly on top of Katsumata for the pin, he was declared the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. Katsumata wanted to end the segment on a happy note so he convinced both idol groups to perform together. However it was suddenly interrupted when To-y approached them armed with a knife acting like a crazed stalker. Katsumata calmed the situation by talking To-y out of it and they hugged. But as they were about to leave ringside, Yuki Ueno suddenly stabbed Katsumata through his body with an umbrella and left him for dead!

At the end of the show a mystery man snuck behind To-y backstage and injected something into his neck. To-y was left in an unconscious state and hasn’t been seen since. DDT eventually had an update announcing that somebody named Dr. Ueno will be bringing Mecha To-y to DDT on 3rd April!

Whose Idea Was It To Do A No Spoiler Show On April Fool’s Day?

March 31, 2025

DDT “NO SPOILERS EVENT VOL. 3 IN UENO”, 01/04/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Dancing Spirit Tradition Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuya Koroku
2. Yakyuken Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs To-y
3. NωA Vs NωA Jr.!: Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
4. World Wide Entertainment Match: Hanorek Hogaso Vs Nerima Sting Vs The Rockza Vs Manmankikind Vs Hara Cena Vs Pakurimusou Vs “Mr. Perfect” Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi
5. Partner Match ~ BOYZ Vs YaroZ All-Out Battle: X Vs X

So tomorrow’s No Spoilers show is happening on April Fool’s Day but by the time the spoilers do come out it should be the day after, so I shouldn’t be falling foul over any fake results. Fingers crossed. The match order will be decided on the day of the show.

Yuya Koroku wants to prove he has fan support going into next weekend’s KO-D Openweight Title match. He is setting up a special booth at the venue where at the end of the show he will be personally selling tickets for his match and signing them with his autographs too.

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 2” Results

March 27, 2025

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 2”, 27/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Kazuma Sumi’s 22nd Birthday Match – Street Fight Scramble Pie Bunkhouse Match: MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated Makoto Oishi & Akito and Kazuma Sumi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Ilusion threw a pie at Sumi (5:16).
2. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Hangover 6-Man Tag Match For Losers Of The Preliminary Rumble: Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata defeated Soma Takao, Yukio Naya & Yuki Ishida when Katsumata pinned Ishida with the Guruguru VHS (9:35).
3. Maximum Allowance Of 5,000 Yen For Bringing The Weapons Death Match: Takeshi Masada & Keigo Nakamura defeated Yuni & Munetatsu Nakamura when Nakamura pinned Yuni with the Ueno-Style Diving Headbutt onto the Red Book (12:04).
4. Special Single Match: Yuya Koroku defeated JJ Furno with the Modified Triangle Lancer (7:45).
5. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Final: MAO defeated Daisuke Sasaki with the Sasaki Daddy Daddy (16:31).
6. Special Tag Match: Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda defeated Chris Brookes & Danshoku Dieno when Honda pinned Dieno with the Diving Fist Drop (20:09).

The main event became quite the free for all given the wrestlers involved. There was brawling throughout the venue with cans of beer being knocked around everywhere. Everyone wore Hirata GO! glasses so the match switched back and forth between fighting and dancing. Danshoku Dieno missed a Moonsault so Antonio Honda took advantage by climbing the top rope. Chris Brookes tried stopping him but Honda put him in a Lip Lock to make him drop off so he can go do the Diving Fist Drop on Dieno for the victory. He joked after the match that he never thought so many thoughts, feelings and ideas could be expressed with just one kiss! He told Kazuki Hirata the next time they’re opponents he’ll tell him how he feels with his lips.

In the final of the Hanami KING OF DRUNK competition Daisuke Sasaki and MAO were both dressed in casual clothing rather than their wrestling costumes. They had to drink tequila at regular intervals during the match. They quickly got drunk and started messing around, like handing drinks to the other wrestlers and slapping each other with flip flops. All of the other wrestlers got drunk and huddled around Sasaki to chant “Sasaki Daddy Daddy” at him. It kept going and going until Sasaki got scared and gave up. The wrestlers all carried him away from the ring while MAO celebrated becoming the KING Of Drunk for the Spring. He asked the fans what is wrong with fighting the past? He will create the future!

The wrestlers in Match #3 were each given a budget of 5,000 yen to go buy items with so they could be used as weapons. Some of the items used include balloons, kaiju figures, stuffed toys, leg stockings, piles of books and a Panda costume head. Munetatsu Nakamura also drived around the venue on a moped and crashed it into Yuni after Takeshi Masada & Keigo Nakamura both got out of the way.

Kazuma Sumi was feeling much better and was allowed to wrestle today, which is good because today is also his birthday! To celebrate turning 22 years old the goal of the match was to make a “birthday cake” out of foam and throw it at an opponent’s face. Everyone tried to do it while carefully not dropping the plate but with other wrestlers interfering it was a very difficult task. Ilusion had the bright idea of using the folder he keeps his college diploma in as a plate to pour the foam on and he successfully pie-faced Sumi with it to win.

The contract signing for the KO-D Openweight Title match on 6th April was held at the beginning of today’s show. Yuya Koroku praised Brookes for leading DDT along with the DNA generation but he believes it is time for D GENERATIONS to step into the company’s main story. Brookes didn’t mince his words. He told Koroku that nobody believes he will win the KO-D Title. Their levels are completely different from each other. Then when it was time for the photo session Brookes told Koroku to put down the D GENERATIONS CUP trophy because it doesn’t matter now. All that is at stake is the KO-D Title.

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 1” Results

March 26, 2025

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 1”, 26/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Shishamo Power defeated Yuni with the Shishamo Power Driver (7:31).
2. MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Takeshi Masada & JJ Furno when Paul pinned Furno with the Reverse Splash (9:19).
3. Falls Count Anywhere Blindfold Scramble Bunkhouse Match: Kazuki Hirata defeated Antonio Honda with a School Boy (35:33).
Order Of Elimination: HARASHIMA, Chris Brookes, Danshoku Dieno and Antonio Honda.
4. Special Tag Match: Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku defeated Takuya Nomura & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Koroku submitted Matsunaga with the Modified Triangle Lancer (8:14).
5. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Preliminary Rumble: Daisuke Sasaki and MAO defeated Yuki Ishida by Ring Out (23:42).
Order Of Elimination: Kazusada Higuchi, Soma Takao, Yukio Naya, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno and Yuki Ishida.
6. Special Single Match: Fuminori Abe defeated Keigo Nakamura with a School Boy (12:32).

There were a lot of kicks in the main event as Fuminori Abe and Keigo Nakamura tried to out-do each other. This included Abe doing Soccer Ball Kicks to Nakamura inside the ring. When he tried to do it outside Nakamura cut him off and he got to do the move instead. Nakamura used a Frankensteiner to try and get the flash pin but Abe kicked out. Abe then successfully pulled off a similar plan when Nakamura went for the Somato and Abe countered it into a School Boy for the three count. Nakamura wasn’t phased by the loss and told Abe to polish up his KO-D Tag Team Title belt. Abe responded that he will beat up Nakamura 126 times harder at the title match than he did today! He then tried to let Nakamura close out the show but Nakamura refused to speak and left the ring.

Everyone involved in the Hanami KING OF DRUNK competition had started drinking before the show began were already completely drunk by the time the Battle Royal began. Alongside the usual Battle Royal rules, drinks were served at regular intervals and if a wrestler could not drink their cup they were eliminated. Daisuke Sasaki and MAO ended up being the last two standing so they will face each other in the final tomorrow.

I should have seen this coming when Shishamo Power showed up again. The dreaded Seafood Vs Meat feud is back on the menu! When Shishamo won his match he was joined in the ring by the Yamada Suisan president as well as Unagi Mask and Super Unagi Mask to promote the company’s sponsored DDT show on 13th April. They were interrupted by Shunma “EL TURKEY” Katsumata who made a promise to get revenge when his team lost to the seafood side at last year’s show. He has new allies to team with him. One of them is Yuya “GIBIE” Koroku but more importantly the other is the pro wrestling world’s most amazing carnivore Aja Kong!

Kazuma Sumi was pulled from the show because he was feeling unwell. He is currently questionable if he can wrestle on tomorrow’s show. Some of the matches may get changed if he won’t be appearing.

3. Falls Count Anywhere Blindfold Scramble Bunkhouse Match: Chris Brookes Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs HARASHIMA Vs Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata
4. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Preliminary Rumble: Yuki Ueno Vs MAO Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs Daisuke Sasaki Vs Soma Takao Vs Yukio Naya Vs Kazuma Sumi Vs Yuki Ishida
5. Special Tag Match: Takuya Nomura & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku
6. Special Single Match: Fuminori Abe Vs Keigo Nakamura

To-y hasn’t recovered from his injury yet so he will be missing this week’s shows. The show on 26th March now has one less match on it after a bunch of wrestlers were moved around for To-y’s absence.

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 2”, 27/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Makoto Oishi & Akito Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs MJ Paul & Ilusion

3. Special Single Match: Yuya Koroku Vs JJ Furno

5. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Hangover 6-Man Tag Match For Losers Of The Preliminary Rumble: X, X & X Vs X, X & X
6. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Final: X Vs X

Not as many changes to Night 2 but a chunk of that lineup depends on how the KING OF DRUNK stuff turns out anyway. Makoto Oishi is now on the show though.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YUKI ARAI’S LAST TWO-SWORD STYLE ~ GO FOR THE VICTORY!!”, 29/03/2025
Aichi Chunichi Hall (Nagoya City)

1. Suzume, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko Vs Yuki Aino, Kaya Toribami & Ivy Steele
2. 3 Way Match: Pom Harajuku Vs Arisu Endo Vs Chika Nanase
3. Maki Itoh Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa
4. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer
5. Yuki Arai, Miu Watanabe, Raku, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami Vs Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI, Haru Kazashiro, Toha & Mifu Ashida
6. Mizuki & Rika Tatsumi Vs Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto

At first it seems weird that Yuki Arai’s match isn’t the main event of this show but then I remember she has a concert to prepare for that’s happening at the end. Also there’s a Princess Of Princess Title match that needs to be built up. Priorities, people!

DDT “OWARI WARS 2025”, 29/03/2025
Aichi Chunichi Hall & Conference

1. 3 Way Match: Yukio Naya Vs JJ Furno Vs Yuki Ishida
2. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Toru Owashi, Yasu Urano & Yuni
3. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Antonio Honda
4. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Kazuma Sumi Vs Yuya Koroku & Kazusada Higuchi
5. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Akito Vs Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura
6. MAO’s Last The 37KAMIINA Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO, Shunma Katsumata & To-y Vs HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Takeshi Masada

DDT have put together a ragtag team for MAO’s last match as a member of The 37KAMIINA. It starts out looking like an all-star squad with HARASHIMA and Danshoku Dieno then we get wacky with Kazuki Hirata and end with a youthful wild card in Takeshi Masada.

DDT “DDT MEET & GREET & FIGHT APRIL”, 03/04/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. HARASHIMA & Yukio Naya Vs Kazuma Sumi & Yuki Ishida
2. Ilusion Vs Yuni
3. Special Tag Match: Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura Vs To-y & Takeshi Masada

The young wrestlers take most of the stage for April’s “MEET & GREET & FIGHT” show including a return to the generational rivalry between Yuni and Ilusion.

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2025 ~YOUR LIE IN APRIL~”, 06/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Toru Owashi & Antonio Honda Vs MJ Paul & Ilusion
1. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Kazuki Hirata & Kumadori Vs Shunma Katsumata, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
2. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Daichi Sato
3. Naomi Yoshimura’s Return Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida Vs Yukio Naya, To-y, Takeshi Masada & JJ Furno
4. 2 Vs 1 Special Handicap Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani Vs KANON
5. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Yuki Ueno Vs HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) Vs Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Yuya Koroku

This looks a little bit awkward. Minoru Suzuki clearly enjoys being in the ring with Yuki Ueno but he did just take the DDT Universal Title away from him. How is Ueno going to act next to him when they team up together? The match is a chance for either HARASHIMA or Danshoku Dieno to nab themselves a future Universal Title shot if things go their way too.

GANBARE☆PRO “MAD MAX 2025 ~ GANBARE☆PRO WRESTLING 12TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 11/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Mixed 6-Man Tag Match: Hartley Jackson, Daisuke®️ & HARUKAZE Vs Yasu Urano, PSYCHO & Banny Oikawa
2. Hikaru Sato & Tyson Maeguchi Vs Toru Sugiura & Munetatsu Nakamura
3. Mizuki Watase’s Return Match: Mizuki Watase, Shigehiro Irie, Choun-Shiryu & Rekka Vs Kouki Iwasaki, Takuya Wada, Fuminori Abe & Shota Kawakami
4. Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Yuna Manase, Koguma & Hazuki Vs Moeka Haruhi, YuuRI & Ami Manase
5. Special Single Match: Ken Ohka Vs Masaaki Mochizuki
6. Special Tag Team Match: Shuichiro Katsumura & Keisuke Ishii Vs Yuji Nagata & Tatsuhito Takaiwa
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) Vs Shinichiro Tominaga

Here’s the full line up for Ganbare☆Pro’s return to Korakuen Hall. After weeks of searching Ken Ohka found his star opponent. It’s Masaaki Mochizuki from Dragongate! We also have Mizuki Watase returning in an 8-Man Tag (looks to me like he isn’t 100% ready yet) and a reunion of the Hentai Punch Drunkers. Meanwhile Munetatsu Nakamura picked up a friend from his recent FREEDOMS appearance, bringing Toru Sugiura over to team with him.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “QUERI PRESENTS TJPW LIVE IN LAS VEGAS”, 18/04/2025
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

4. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

The three title matches for Las Vegas are now confirmed. Mizuki has taken the risk of choosing Miyu Yamashita for her next Princess Title defence in the hopes she can finally beat her one on one. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara have formed the team Ober Eats to challenge Kyoraku Kyomei for the Princess Tag Team Titles. Last but not least there is the rematch of Suzume versus Jada Stone with the International Princess Title again on the line.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GOLDEN WEEK FAN APPRECIATION DAY 「WEST」”, 05/05/2025

Card Updates For March, Laughter Leads To Hell

March 21, 2025

There has been no further update on Masahiro Takanashi’s condition since yesterday. He is still undergoing medical examinations and DDT will announce the results of his diagnosis on a later date.

GANBARE☆PRO “BOAT RACE G1 TODA PRIMROSE”, 22/03/2026
Saitama Boat Race Toda

0. CWP Offer Match: Daisuke®️ & Dick Zlater Vs Doshipan & Takeshita
1. Sayaka Unagi & Banny Oikawa Vs Yuna Manase & YuuRI
2. El Gambaman Vs London Machine
3. Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki Vs Hartley Jackson & Shota Kawakami
4. Shiro Koshinaka, Ken Ohka & Yumehito Imanari Vs Tatsuhito Takaiwa, Shuichiro Katsumura & Choun-Shiryu

The wrestlers taking part in the CWP match have been decided.

DDT “NANIWA FIGHTER 2025”, 23/03/2025
Osaka City Miyakojima Community Center

1. JJ Furno Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga
2. Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda Vs Toru Owashi & Yukio Naya
3. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Keigo Nakamura, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
4. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Akito
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ishida
6. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada Vs Yuya Koroku & HARASHIMA

There was another injury coming out of yesterday’s show. To-y injured the side of his body and is taking this weekend off as a precaution.

KANON has also requested to take a short amount of time off. He isn’t booked again until 6th April.

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 1”, 26/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Kazusada Higuchi & Yuni Vs MJ Paul & Ilusion
2. Special Single Match: Shishamo Power Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga
3. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada Vs JJ Furno
4. Falls Count Anywhere Blindfold Scramble Bunkhouse Match: Chris Brookes Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs HARASHIMA Vs Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata
5. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Preliminary Rumble: Yuki Ueno Vs MAO Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs To-y Vs Daisuke Sasaki Vs Soma Takao Vs Yukio Naya Vs Yuki Ishida
6. Special Tag Match: Takuya Nomura & Kazuma Sumi Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku
7. Special Single Match: Fuminori Abe Vs Keigo Nakamura

The arrival of Astronauts is adding some freshness to the DDT cards. Fuminori Abe is going to face Keigo Nakamura in a preview of next month’s KO-D Tag Team Titles match. Also I bet a few people out there will be excited by the idea of Takuya Nomura and Jun Akiyama crossing paths even if it’s just in a tag match.

A change of plans for the Hanami KING OF DRUNK tournament. Takanashi’s injury reduces the Battle Royal down to eight wrestlers so it is now going to be the last two men standing who will qualify for the final. Also Chris Brookes is no longer taking part in it, presumably out of respect for Takanashi. Yuki Ueno is swapping places with him on the card instead.

The masked man from the seafood sponsorship is back! Shishamo Power will be in action.

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 2”, 27/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuma Sumi Vs MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Akito & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
2. Maximum Allowance Of 5,000 Yen For Bringing The Weapons Death Match: Takeshi Masada & Keigo Nakamura Vs Yuni & Munetatsu Nakamura
3. Special Single Match: Yuya Koroku Vs JJ Furno
4. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Danshoku Dieno Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
5. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Hangover 6-Man Tag Match For Losers Of The Preliminary Rumble: X, X & X Vs X, X & X
6. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Final: X Vs X

Here is a big chance for JJ Furno to get some attention if he can beat the current No. 1 Contender Yuya Koroku.

DDT “OWARI WARS 2025”, 29/03/2025
Aichi Chunichi Hall & Conference

1. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Antonio Honda
2. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Akito Vs Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura
3. MAO’s Last The 37KAMIINA Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO, Shunma Katsumata & To-y Vs X, X, X & X

In a move that could eventually lead to a big shake up in DDT, MAO has decided to leave The 37KAMIINA and his final match with the unit will be at the end of the month. He feels he has done everything he can do with the sauna club and has goals he knows he cannot reach if he stays where he is now. He teased having a crazy looking schedule for the next four months heading into the summer. The first piece of that story is today’s news that he is booked for a New Japan show at Korakuen Hall on 4th April along with Yuya Koroku. It is also notable that MAO is not taking part in this year’s King Of DDT tournament despite winning it last year. Could he finally be Best Of The Super Juniors bound?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SPRING FESTIVAL DEBUT IN UENO!”, 02/04/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Arisu Endo Vs Uta Takami
2. Suzume & Haruna Neko Vs Toga & Chika Nanase
3. Maki Itoh & Yuki Kamifuku Vs Kira Summer & Ivy Steele
4. Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto Vs Wakana Uehara & Mifu Ashida
5. Miu Watanabe Vs Pom Harajuku
6. Special Tag Match: Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Antonio Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi
7. Spring Sports Day Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls 10-Woman Special Tag Match: Mizuki, Yuki Aino, Raku, Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki Vs Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Kaya Toribami, Yoshiko Hasegawa & HIMAWARI

There will be more detailed rules explained for the main event soon but so far it is going to be Best 2 out of 3 Falls with no time limit.

Antonio Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi remain as some of the few men to get booked on a Tokyo Joshi Pro show.

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2025 ~YOUR LIE IN APRIL~”, 06/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Naomi Yoshimura’s Return Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida Vs X, X, X & X
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Kazuki Hirata & Kumadori Vs Shunma Katsumata, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
3. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Daichi Sato
4. 2 Vs 1 Special Handicap Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani Vs KANON
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) Vs Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura
6. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Yuya Koroku

It is now confirmed that Chris Brookes is the defending KO-D Openweight Champion taking on Yuya Koroku. They’re going to have better chances to hype up their match in the coming weeks.

Keigo Nakamura has a very strong tag partner in Shinya Aoki but he is reaching the point where he does not want to hopelessly rely on him. Instead he wants to use his own power to beat Astronauts for the KO-D Tag Team Titles.

KANON will be returning from his brief absence ready to fight DAMNATION T.A all by himself. He has nothing left and doesn’t care if Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani trample all over him again.

Daichi Sato is officially welcomed into the DDT roster on this show. Jun Akiyama is the welcoming party.

All of Harimao will be reunited when Naomi Yoshimura comes back for his first match since November 2022.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “QUERI PRESENTS TJPW LIVE IN LAS VEGAS”, 18/04/2025
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Special Single Match: Masha Slamovich Vs Miu Watanabe
2. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs X
3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) Vs X & X
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs X

Zara Zakher has been added to the show.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAMS! VOL. 12 ~GIVE IT TO THE CLOUDS THE MOUNTAIN CUCKOO~”, 17/05/2025
Osaka City Sumiyoshi Civic Center

1. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~Laughter Leads To Hell~: Kuishinbo Kamen, Shunma Katsumata & Ram Kaichow Vs Kikutaro, Antonio Honda & No Name

“Laughter Leads To Hell” is a pretty apt description for the first match added to Yukinori Matsui’s show.

Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi will be on the show.

The main event cannot be spoiled at all even after midnight passes because the mystery match will involve the audience themselves in the revived feud between BOYZ and YaroZ. According to DDT whatever happens in that match the audience will just be a complicit as the company!

The group of gaijin wrestlers led by Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi once known as Ultimate Superstars Action are returning to Japan to give the country some World Wide Entertainment.

The original NωA are having a reunion match to take on their successors NωA Jr. That means Shunma Katsumata is on both teams!
